The Premier Cru Combe au Moine probably owes its name to the presence of monks from the Benedictine Order of Cluny in Gevrey-Chambertin. The grapes vinified by the estate come from a small plot (0.30 hectare / ? 0.75 acre) of 40-year-old vines. From this climat comes a wine with more finesse than power, but very well structured nevertheless. Its subtle liveliness highlights a mouth-watering minerality, of rare elegance. The floral notes mingle subtly with wild berry aromas for a long-lasting palate. We use 50% whole-bunch fermentation, and ageing lasts about 18 months in barrels (with 20% of new barrels). It will pair well with a saddle of lamb grilled on the barbecue, a pike-perch with crispy skin, a classic coq au vin, or a tournedos of duck with grapes.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.
